The New Jersey Utility Shareholders Association (NJUSA) is a nonprofit membership organization for the retail shareholders of New Jersey investor-owned utilities who reside in New Jersey and who wish to participate in shaping government policies that affect New Jersey investor-owned utilities, their customers and shareholders. By joining NJUSA, utility shareholders living in New Jersey can have a say on legislative and regulatory matters that can affect the utilities in which they are invested, and in turn, the value of their shares.

Government policies clearly affect utilities, their customers and their shareholders. However, the impact on shareholders and the role they play in ensuring that money is available to utilities to deliver continuous service is not often discussed or well understood. The need for shareholders to receive a fair return on their investments is even less well understood.

NJUSA exists to fill in that gap in understanding by informing public policy decision makers about shareholders’ roles in ensuring safe and reliable utility service, and providing shareholders with timely information on utility-related legislative and regulatory issues – ultimately giving shareholders a voice on issues that can impact their lives, and their investments.
